In David Bowie’s dressing room thanks to Adobe

After launching, on June 15th, a series of new digital tools inspired by the White Duke, Adobe renews its tribute to David Bowie, taking us on a virtual tour of the iconic British artist’s dressing room. In particular we go to the backstage of the character of Ziggy Stardustwho turned 50 just last month.

Wandering around Bowie’s dressing room, a dream for the artist’s fans but for all music lovers, is part of an experience / game. This is made possible thanks to one meticulous virtual reproduction of the spaces that Bowie frequented before going on stage. Much of the virtual material takes shape from the original photos of Mick Rockfamous British music photographer.

Adobe’s official press release reads:

“Users can enter the room, awaiting David’s return from the stage, search for a variety of Ziggy Stardust items, including her famous red platform boots, the Hagstrom guitar, green and gold bracelets inspired by the ones that designer Kansai Yamamoto designed for Bowie, or a leopard-print accessory said to be a gift from the actress of the video. The Jean Genie, Cyrinda Foxe. Once these treasures have been identified, you will receive privileged information on the design and importance of the objects for David ”.

Once in Bowie’s dressing room, we will have to look for various objects that will give us interesting information about the character of Ziggy Stardust. But be careful: David is on stage performing an encore. We must therefore hurry before he returns to the dressing room.
